Chestnuts and such

We have a huge, beautiful Chinese chestnut tree in our back yard...




...and the lovely fruits have begun to fall in droves (some roasted below).



Any good recipe ideas (aside from stuffing) for what to do with them? They're not bad on their own, but it would be nice to find a good soup or dessert recipe.


Frankie had her first CYO tennis lesson today. She did well apparently. Hopefully Lola can give her some pro tips!


Going all-out on game day with "Irishopoly", chili and fried cornbread.  Go Irish!

This is so funny - we picked up a handful of fresh fallen chestnuts today and are roasting them now! Have no idea what to do with them.

Wow how funny! Must be chestnut season. This looks interesting: http://www.epicurious.com/recipes/food/views/chestnut-and-kale-soup-108875
Let me know if you find anything good!

Check out chestnut puree--looks easy, and you blend it with whipped cream for dessert.
Just took a look on google--they're quite good for you.
